Fodor's Review

One of the most beautiful lagoons in Belize, Southern Lagoon, is about 25 miles (41 km) north of Dangriga—a 45-minute car ride. This lagoon is home to many West Indian manatees, and on beaches nearby, hawksbill turtles nest May to October. The Northern and Western lagoons also are in this area.
